Golden Vs Silver Items

[ZhaR]

I noticed (obviously) that Nintendo has felt the need to add silver items to AC:CF. Some of the differences between gold and silver items are quite obvious, such as the gold and silver slingshots. Others, though, are somewhat difficult to differentiate between. I know what all of the golden items do, but many silver ones just baffle me. Here's a list of what I'd like to know.

1. How are the gold/silver axes different?
2. What exactly does the silver watering can do?
3. What does the silver shovel do?

Any help would be appreciated.

i think gold axe is faster....
silver watering can can revive red turnips
gives more cash when hitting rocks

Silver axes never brake, gold axes never brake AND cut down trees faster.
Silver Watering Cans revive dead plants, Gold Cans create golden roses.
The silver shovel gives you a slightly increased chance to receive more money from money rocks. (example: a 1k bag would give you 2k if it went into effect)

Thanks for the info. That'll clear up a bit of confusion that my friend and I were having.

Silver rod attracts fish from farther distance, gold attracts even farther.

Oh and don't forget, the golden watering can turns ROTTING plants into gold ones.
